Telegram might be fully blocked in Russia. The question is, when?
Russian authorities are denying media reports of plans to fully block Telegram from 1 April, noting that no decisions have been made on the matter yet.

Auf einmal ging kaum noch etwas beim zweitbeliebtesten #Messenger Russlands. Seit dem 9. Februar klagen #Telegram-Nutzer (91 Millionen in #Russland) über massive Störungen.
Die Aufsichtsbehörde Roskomnadsor – für viele Russen einfach die Zensurbehörde – hatte Telegram gezielt attackiert und in Teilen eingeschränkt, meldete das Nachrichtenportal RBK.
